Objective: The present study was to propose an individualized familiarization method for vertical jumps and to verify its effect on intra-subject variability. Methods: Fifty three men (mean +/- S.D.; age 23.5 +/- 3.3; height 1.76 +/- 0.08 m; mass 72.8 +/- 8.6 Kg; body fat 12.9 +/- 5.2%) performed successive jumps to reach the proposed stability level. After 48 hours, this process was repeated and the stability between the days was verified; if necessary, more sessions were performed. The stability level was determined by a Z-Test with a confidence interval of 95%. After the familiarization process, two additional experimental sessions were performed in order to determine the reliability of the performance in the Squat Jump (SJ) and the Countermovement Jump (CMJ). The coefficient of variation and standard error of measurement were determined individually (CVi and SEMi). A paired T-Test was performed to verify differences in the CVi and SEMi before and after the familiarization process. Results: The CVi presented a significant reduction after the familiarization process (p %26lt; 0.001), changing from 5.01 +/- 2.40% to 2.95 +/- 0.89% in the SJ. The CVi also changed in the CMJ (from 4.50 +/- 2.19% to 2.58 +/- 0.81%). The same also occurred with the SEMi in both the SJ and the CMJ, changing from 1.29 +/- 0.53 cm to 0.83 +/- 0.25 cm in the SJ and from 1.35 +/- 0.51cm to 0.83 +/- 0.26 cm in the CMJ. Conclusion: The proposed individualized familiarization method significantly decreased intra-subject variability, which allows for a higher statistical power in the laboratorial setting and a greater sensitivity for performance monitoring tools.
